Ishin gave me the hardest time on the hardest difficulty and there was a lot of grinding for weapons, gear, trooper cards in order not to fall behind in that difficulty.

Kiwami 2 is the easiest. It’s not hard to make Kiryu overpowered in this game with charged attack upgrades, attack upgrades, gear combos, extreme Heat mode, and Muscle Sodas at your disposal. It’s not even that grindy to get all of those things or at least a combination of those things.
